First time visiting WCU for Nutcracker… it’s on me that I did not read the description closely enough about the dirt gravel road to access and steep driveway to the tiny house. Otherwise was a fantastic alternative to a hotel room, minutes to WCU and host was extremely responsive!

Perfect and Peaceful!

I was really impressed with the owner’s attention to detail, the cleanliness of the property, the organization of the tiny house, and the owner’s communication. It was very obvious that the owner takes pride in their property. I also enjoyed the history of the property! It was very quiet and so peaceful! I will definitely stay there again!

A hidden gem!

Everything about this stay was top notch from start to finish from communication to the amenities to the location. If you are needing to visit a student at WCU, you can't get closer to the campus. The location is tucked away and private, and the host has thought about every detail that would add comfort and convenience during a short visit. We will definitely return again to this location and recommend it to others.

Tiny house love

The property is very convenient to WCU and has a short walk to river access but it's also tucked away in peaceful surroundings and trees. My stay was very comfortable and enjoyable. The host is attentive and accommodating, although I felt everything was already prepared for before I arrived and I couldn't have asked for anything else. Really enjoyed my stay, too bad I had to go back to the grind!
